I doubt it really does bug that many people. Being clinically depressed, it's pretty much a constant in my life and even I joke about how I ate some crappy meal that made me depressed, or whatever offhand 'oh-so-depressed' joke fits.

I find its the people who are not depressed who feel sensitive about the word, while depressed people are 'used' to their condition and usually understand the difference between 'iwanttodie' and "I'm so depressed cuz my favorite thing ended".

Just my experience or anecdote, not fact

Here you go!

I just recorded a lil video where I show some simple exercises you can do. I myself don't do this enough but it is really helpful for players of all levels.

Its basically the tools for a simple 5 minute left hand warm-up routine. I have to say I'm tired and and lessthansober so I'm having some difficulties playing (and talking in English too) but I tried to make it short and sweet, and gave most time to the (last two) most important concepts.

Let me know if you have any further questions or if this was helpful to you :)

Hell yeah dude, keep it up! Guitar is so hard but so awesome and satisfying to play :)

Tho If I may be bold, your fretting hand looks very cramped and 'unhealthy', especially how your middle finger curls up and folds over the ring finger, looks very unnatural.

I can tell you're in the beginner phase so it's normal to have this issue. I would however suggest you look up exercises and tips on how to hold your hands and how to hold your fretting hand more naturally.
You will likely hurt yourself and might cause longterm issues if you don't work on this (bad) form. Don't get too scared by that tho, again, this is a normal part of learning guitar.

I'd suggest some basic stretch exercises, exercises focussed on having a light touch on the strings and exercises that force you to keep your fingers on the fretboard while playing the next note on the next string. A simple 5-10 minutes spent on that at the start of every practice session will do.

If you'd like, I could record myself doing some exercises I have used and learned over the years so you can copy what I'm doing or at least know what sort of exercises to look up yourself.

Bad form is normal for beginners but it's incredibly important to work on that asap, and your fingers look slightly more cramped than the average beginner so I think focusing a little on that would really benefit you and also help your longevity on the instrument.

Yeah seems like he missed the punch by his horns and smacked face first into his opponent lol. Generally seems like a inefficient/painful way of fighting to be honest, losing brain cells with every slap

For some reason giraffes fighting are the hardest animal fights for me to look at. I mean what other animal violently flings their head around on a long ropey neck like this?

It looks ridiculous, imagine having your head where your fist is and then smacking people with it. It's just so weird and painful looking.

I mean, the giraffe at the end seems to pretty much knock himself out

This show doesn't work on the same time-travel logic/schtick as Dark. I'd don't want to spoil it but 1899 focusses more on concepts of (soft spoilers, just naming general themes) '>!what is reality', simulation theory, consciousness,!< instead of focus on 'time travel', 'interlinked characters', 'loops'

It has a pretty different theme/mysterylogic. It does execute it (imo) with the same accuracy, intensity and mystery as Dark does but it's a noticably different concept the show is built on.

Imo and to agree with OP, it does seem to allow for viewers to get into the mystery quicker than Dark did and it did grab my attention immediately, while Dark (imo) needed a few episodes to properly unravel or understand what it's trying to do

Then again this is only S1 so it is hard to say if there is any trade-off in overal quality due to the story being a bit more easier to understand. No need for external timeline guides or family trees to keep up with this show. (So far)

Off-putting for many. Many being a small percentage of viewers compared to those that didn't think it was off-putting and actually felt pulled-in due to the tone and content.

So maybe it was off-putting to many, but it was the opposite of off-putting to most people, like a significant factor more people than those that disliked it.

You and your RL social circle are not 'many people', you're just anecdotal evidence, bias, not proof of any fact or statistic at all

There's nobody in this thread more unsympathetic to other viewpoints than you OP as evidenced by you constantly moving the goalposts in every conversation, never agreeing with anyone or understanding their viewpoint.

Always saying it must be because they already knew what is was about, or how most people in your 'real life' circle said [x] about it, implying your experiences are more true than those of people commenting here.

There's a reason this thread kinda turned against you and it's completely because of your own reactions

Holy shit I hadn't made that connection yet! Thats cool
